oh k so i put in my rebuilt, thought i put everything in correctly but the spark plugs aren't sparking, the firing order is right, starter good.........where did i go wrong? electrical, ground, fuel any ideas please help!
 
If the spark plugs arent 'sparking' (assuming you've done something to see a visible arc with the boots off) you'll want to start troubleshooting ignition components before checking fuel etc. Also you'll want to make sure there is no oil in your spark wells. If there is no spark the first steps would be to check fuses, wiring, connections at the coils, make sure the cas is plugged up and you've got everything grounded.
 
update check all wires again.......... I'm not getting any fuel there was no power to the fuel pump......so i cut the positive wire to by pass it using a long wire to got straight to the battery to the pump and now its pumping but still no spark wtf? i must not have something obviously hooked up wrong any please help
 
coil pack and a/c compressor have same style electrical connector -- sounds like you may have 'em backwards. Check cam angle sensor connecotr as well -- no cam signal -- no sparky sparky.
